12/17/2016 7:00 AM 0.28 3.0 M 9.0 M Very windy. Snow depth on snow board <1" but two snow depth gauges show 3" & 4" additional depth respectively. With SWE I am guessing new snow of 3". Snowing heavily right now.
12/18/2016 7:00 AM 0.28 3.5 M 9.0 M Another anomaly. At 1030 on 17 Dec, my snowboard had 3.5" of new snow yet the two snow stakes this morning showed no difference in depth from the previous day.

There was no rain but gaupels.

3/29/2017 4/05/2017 12:30 PM 8 1.80 14.0 M I am quite unhappy, I missed this wonderful long-term snowstorm. From a neighbor's reports snow was measured at about 1.5" Thursday morning, 4" Sunday, and 13" on Tuesday morning for a total of 18.5". Today, Wednesday is beautiful with not a cloud in an azure sky.
4/8/2017 4/10/2017 4:00 PM 3 0.00 1.0 M Open areas; many snow patches
4/26/2017 4/30/2017 1:30 PM 5 2.05 16.0 M I am sure my NWS gauge will record more SWE once the snow melts. If so, I will revise this report. Forecasters really missed the timing on this one. We had almost a foot of very wet snow on a steep hill leading to our house Friday around 1600 Friday. Forecast was for real snow starting around midnight. Could not make it up the hill. I would take a core sample but do not know how to take one with a 12" gauge and 16" on the ground.
5/25/2017 6/10/2017 4:00 PM 17 0.85 0.0 M Accumulation is from NWS 8" gauge. COCORAHS gauge was knocked down most likely by elk or bear trying to get at the water. The NWS gauge is highly inaccurate when compared to readings from the COCORAHS gauge and its metal body is conducive to fostering evaporation, so more precip likely fell in the past three weeks.
